Narrative

Speech, Language and Swallowing Disorders & Reading Disabilities provides comprehensive diagnostic evaluations and treatment programs for communication and swallowing disorders across the lifespan from newborns to adults.

When the ability to speak, listen, read or write is affected, daily living can be frustrating and isolating. Eating and drinking are also vital functions and an important social ritual that can be difficult and intimidating for those who are unable to swallow.
